Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Astros 1.5 back

WIth their win over the pirates, theh astros are 1 1/2 games back from the pennant.

Wouldn't that be something?  That sort of collapse from the Cards and that sort of push from the Astros would more or less be the equivalent of the MSU vs. ND game.

GO 'STROS!!!!

And Boo Cards.

I can't handle this
As an avid Astros fan, let me say that these "miracles" are killing me. It's 6-6 in the bottom of the 12th against the pirates right now. If we lose, we fall to 2 1/2 behind the cards. It's driving me nuts.

The Cardinals
I'm not much of an Astros fan, but I freaking HATE Tony LaBowelmovement... err... LaRussa.

Go 'Stros.

I love it!
Stros have always been good in the second half recently.

usually they start the push in early august, not late septemeber.

but ive been a die hard fan all my life, and this would be just spectacular. gotta love september baseball!!

yes die hard
Astros fan here.  I love/hate the comebacks, I wish they would just take care of business earlier so I don't endure a rolaids overdose every September.  

Big Puma for MVP!!
